Company history About the exact founding year of the "Solinger Verzinkerei und Zuckerformenfabrik Ewald vom Hofe Nachf. there are no records. The later owner Hermann Barche, however, dated the foundation of the company by Gebr. Hartkopf to the year 1841 as a result of his research. In 1866 it was taken over by the iron and metal wholesaler Peter Holzrichter from Barmen. His son-in-law, the businessman Ewald vom Hofe from Lüdenscheid, managed the Solingen business until 1873 when he took it over completely and ran it under his own name. The sugar loaf mould industry was established in Solingen in the 1840s and 50s as an alternative to the crisis-ridden cutlery industry. The first Solingen commercial register, the "Verzeichnis der im Handelsgerichtsbezirk Elberfeld bestehenden Handelsfirmen" of 1864 (STAS Library IV K 4, 1864), lists three sugar loaf form factories for Solingen. According to the annual reports of the Chamber of Commerce (STAS Library GA 583), this branch of production experienced a good development until the 1870s. Production was mainly for the Rhenish sugar industry, but also for export to almost all European countries, mainly Austria and Russia. But when in the late 1870s the main export countries drastically increased customs duties and lump sugar was introduced in Germany, the production of sugar loaf forms became anachronistic. The annual report of the Chamber of Commerce of 1880 (ibid. p. 21) predicted that most of the 200 employees would have to find a new job. The reports from the following years clearly document this decline. As early as 1883, a quarter of the workers formerly employed (ibid. p. 19) were sufficient to cover the demand for sugar loaf forms. One possible way out of the crisis was taken by a Solingen entrepreneur who relocated production to Russia (ibid.), another alternative was to convert production to ice cells, which had been the company's main product from the farm since the late 1980s. The wage books, which have been available since 1892, show the increasing demand for personnel. While just under 20 workers were employed in 1892, the number rose to just under 30 by 1896. Obviously, however, the production of ice cells was a seasonal business, so that the permanent core of the workforce was supplemented by day labourers when needed. In the week from 30.11.-7.12.1895, for example, 68 workers were on the payroll (cf. No. 265 ff.). In 1899 the Solingen businessman Hermann Rauh, who was also a partner in the Carl Rauh company, bought the Höffgen-based company, including the residential buildings at Kaiserstrasse 253/255 and almost 11,000 square metres of land between Kaiserstrasse and Kreuzstrasse, and continued to run it under the name "Solingen galvanizing plant and sugar mould factory Ewald vom Hofe Nachf. The change of ownership was also accompanied by a relocation of the company, as Hermann Rauh planned to exploit the property by creating the new Kurfürstenstrasse (cf. STAS, Nachlaß Barche, NA 5). In 1904/1905 the company buildings were moved to Eintrachtstraße. An expansion of the company does not seem to have been connected with this, because the number of workers remained about the same. But the strong seasonal fluctuations in the size of the workforce appear to have diminished. Until the First World War, an average of 25-30 workers were employed. The focus of production was on ice cells, which were also sold throughout Europe, but also other sheet metal products such as buckets, barrels, etc. In addition there were sheet metal and galvanizing works, mainly for other Solingen companies. The First World War represented a breakthrough in the obviously good economic development. Despite partial conversion to indirect and direct war production, the balance sheets for the war years are partly in the red (No. 435) and the workforce declined to about 10-12 men, by the end of 1917 even to 6 men. Also the early years of the republic were economically not very pleasant for the company. In August 1923 the company had to close and was only reopened on 26 February 1924 with 6 employees, when the phase of relative stability of the first German republic also seemed to allow the company Ew. vom Hofe Nachf. a small upswing, until in the world economic crisis again a slump occurred. The balance sheets for the years 1931-1934 show losses (cf. No. 478f.). The war years were marked by rationing of raw materials and a shortage of skilled workers. During the bombing raids on Solingen in November 1944, the company on Eintrachtstraße was also hit. The remaining 5 employees, later only 3, were exclusively occupied with clean-up work until June 1945. The company remained small, the number of employees at the beginning of the century was far from reached. Nevertheless, the start to the "economic miracle" seemed to be off to a good start. For 1951, 12 workers and 2 salaried employees are mentioned (cf. No. 123), but they alone generated an export turnover of more than DM 40,000. The sources for the time after 1945 are rather poor, so that little can be said about the further course of the company. It can only be stated that the company was again in the red at the beginning of the 1960s (see No 127 et seq.). The focus of the portfolio is on the period following the takeover of the company by Hermann Rauh (1899). The following should be emphasized in particular: 1. the wage book series, which is completely preserved from 1892-1953 and contains information on the names of employees, type of employment, wages, (piecework, hourly and daily wages) and deductions (taxes, social insurance) (No. 265-274 and No. 265-274). 50-66); 2. the balance books, which are available from 1912-1935 and then again from 1955-1964 (the latter incompletely filled in) and allow conclusions to be drawn about the economic development of the company (No. 435,478,479,348-350, 127-131); 3. the documentation of customer and supplier traffic. Thus the complete copy book series (correspondence copies) from 1899-1921 (No. 170-193) is available, for the following years numerous individual files. Also complete are the series of invoice books for the period 1905-1955 (no. 90-97) and the current account books for 1913-1940 (special account for each customer and supplier) (no. 476/477); 4. the calculation books, which once include the working calculation books from 1903-1926 (no. 275-280), for later times individual calculations (in no. 373-375) and the total calculation books from 1899-1926 (no. 338, 360, 281-288, 344, 345, 289 and 361) and allow statements about the profit margin. Even after the death of Hermann Rauh on 14.11.1911, the company remained in family ownership. His wife Clara Rauh, née Egen, was heir to the company. She was supported by her son-in-law Karl Barche. The stock was recorded in 1985 by Ralf Rogge.

Mrs. Marianne Peres, née Höltgen (1900-1981) [oo Kurt Peres ( 1951)], and her daughter Ina Tückmantel have handed over the documents listed below Fi 10 No. 1-54 to the City Archives on 6 November 1979. The materials were in inscribed envelopes or with content labels. During processing, they were combined into larger units of description. Only double copies of newspapers were collected. The city archive of Ina Tückmantel received the numbers 55-78 in January 1989, the numbers Fi 10 No. 79 - 92 and Fi 10 No. 98-100 as well as the family Bible (FA 414) in the following years until 2001. Wolfgang Eduard Peres ( 2002) in Heidelberg, son of Kurt Peres from his 1st marriage, meticulously dealt with the history of the company and the Peres family until all ramifications. His scientific legacy lies in the Rheinisch-Westfälischen Wirtschaftsarchiv in Cologne, stock 204. W.E. Peres is the author of the article on Daniel Peres in the Neue Deutsche Biographie 2001, where he also outlines the further history of the company. An impression of his tireless spirit of research may be conveyed by his inquiries and by the copies of sources and adaptations sent to the City Archives.

Findbuch: 4745 AE = 1816-1976; unlisted: 20 lfm files as well as approx. 500 maps and plans The company, founded in 1717 at the latest, was traditionally strongly export-oriented in its traditional business of knife and scissors production. The main markets were Holland and Belgium, and since the end of the 19th century also overseas markets. The focus here was on the colonial areas of Asia, at the latest with the establishment of a branch in Buenos Aires in 1908, but trade with South America also experienced a significant upswing. However, the development of North American, African and other European markets failed. After the First World War, the company invested in its own drop forge, which also allowed it to act as a supplier to domestic industries. At the peak of its development, Herder employed around 450 factory workers and salaried employees as well as about the same number of home workers. Herder retained its character as a manageable and probably conservative family business until the end, which was unable to diversify any further apart from the production of drop forgings. In 1993 the company finally had nothing left to oppose the intensifying price competition on its traditional markets towards the end of the 20th century: It filed for bankruptcy after the traditional knife and scissors production had already been sold. The focus of overdelivery is on relationships with suppliers and customers. The network of business partners, the focus of which was the Herder company, and the transformation of this network over the decades become recognisable. Documents on the company's internal relations, work organisation, cost calculations, etc., on the other hand, are only sparsely available.

The history of the development of the collection After the town unification in 1929, the old registries of the formerly independent towns were first accommodated in the newly established Solingen town archive under the direction of Richard Erntges in the new administration building Cronenberger Straße (formerly WKC). None of the formerly independent cities had previously had their own archives. Erntges - with the help of auxiliary staff - developed these six stocks according to a uniform file plan. Therefore there are gaps in the systematics in all files of the formerly independent cities. In most cases, the individual classification group titles also served as file titles, usually only differentiated according to "generalia" (usually without local subjects) and "specialia" (the files created by the respective city administration for the local occur. Some files, which according to the file plan or tape count had originally once been available, were included in the directory by Erntges because he probably had the hope that the files could possibly appear again. To date, this has not happened, so that in these cases we have to assume cassations before 1929. In the search book you will find the note "empty" in these files. For reasons of completeness, the data records from the "Historical Archive" were also duplicated into this collection, the term of which ends after 1808. Likewise a part of the files (above all school chronicles and trade or restaurant concessions) ends only after 1930, thus correctly belongs to the stock SG. A further distortion has been omitted until today due to time reasons. May 2008 Ralf Rogge
